FAQs

How do I set the desired temperature?

Turn the numbered dial to the desired setting. The numbers correspond to temperature levels; consult the product documentation for approximate temperature values.

What does the OFF position do?

The OFF position completely shuts off the flow of hot water to the radiator.

What is the FROST setting?

The FROST setting is designed to protect your pipes from freezing during cold weather by maintaining a minimum temperature.

How do I know if it's compatible with my radiator?

The Drayton RT212 TRV is compatible with most standard 15mm pipework radiators. If you're unsure, consult a heating engineer.

How often should I replace the valve?

The Drayton RT212 TRV is designed for long-term use. Its lifespan will depend on usage and maintenance. Refer to the 18-month warranty for coverage.

Can I install it myself?

Where can I find replacement parts?

Replacement parts can be sourced from most plumbing and heating supply stores or online retailers.

Troubleshooting

Radiator not heating up.

Check that the valve is not in the OFF position and that the desired temperature is set. Ensure the lockshield valve is open.

Radiator overheating.

Reduce the setting on the TRV. Check for any obstructions around the valve that might be affecting the sensor.

Valve leaking.

Check the connections for tightness. If the leak persists, contact a qualified heating engineer.
